# John 3:16 and Faith "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16, NIV). This verse teaches that faith—believing in Jesus Christ—is the means by which people receive eternal life. It emphasizes that salvation is available to anyone ("whoever") who places their trust in God's Son, and that this faith rescues believers from spiritual death and grants them everlasting life with God.
